I thing you have gave space characters in your input , to avoid this use the double quotes.

Code:
while :
do
echo "what's ur name? (if none just press [ENTER])"
read name
changeName=`echo "$name" | sed "s/on/ey/"`
echo $changeName  #this variable still can be read
if [ -z "$name" ]; then
 echo "you don't have a name goodbye"
 exit 0
else
 echo "your name will change from: $name to $changeName" #now changeName cannot be read why?
fi
done
